    “In the Summertime” by Mungo Jerry (f/ Danny Tamberelli)
    Jun 24 2026
    Of course you know all about Beatlemania, but did you know about Mungomania? You probably think that’s some sort of joke, but it’s not…Mungomania was a real thing. Off the back of the hype from ONE good festival performance in 1970, Mungo Jerry’s “In the Summertime” went on to become one of the top-selling singles of all time, topping the charts in 20 countries. This week, we’re joined by actor and musician Danny Tamberelli to discuss muttonchops, washboards, jug-blowing, drinking and driving, and all the reasons we don’t know MORE songs from Mungo Jerry.

    Belvedere Bros S1E3: Gotta Dance
    Jun 19 2026
    Originally released on March 29th, 1985, the third episode of Mr. Belvedere finds Wesley taking an interest in ballet (much to George’s chagrin.) Though the family tries to keep Wesley’s lessons a secret from George, the cat is soon let out of the bag when he finds Wesley’s slippers. Can George handle his son’s pirouettes and pliés? This week, we explore this classic episode in which the family’s patriarch is forced to grow beyond his outdated ideas of what makes a man.

  • “Mickey” by Toni Basil (f/ Pj Caruso)

    “Mickey” by Toni Basil (f/ Pj Caruso)
    Jun 17 2026
    In late 1982, Toni Basil took a break as one of the most accomplished choreographers and dancers on the planet to, ya know…have a #1 smash hit single. Rising above everyone from Lionel Richel to Michael Jackson to Paul McCartney to Marvin Gaye, the almost 40 year old Toni subverted all expectations of a female pop star to grab the top spot. The song and music video are now permanently affixed to our brains, and she’ll continue to be a part of one hit wonder discussions for decades to come. This week, we’re joined by drummer and friend Pj Caruso to discuss a song that took us WAY too long to feature, and we’ll decide if Toni Basil really DID blow our minds.

    Belvedere Bros S1E2: The Outcasts
    Jun 12 2026
    In the second ever episode of Mr. Belvedere (which was originally released on March 22nd, 1985), Wesley feels like an outcast when he isn’t invited to his friend Howie’s party. Mr. Belvedere comes to the rescue, suggesting that Wesley instead throw a party of his own. This week, we get into how young Wesley handles the situation, whether or not the alternative party was a good idea, and if George is in fact striking his children.

  • “Everything You Want” by Vertical Horizon

    “Everything You Want” by Vertical Horizon
    Jun 10 2026
    In the summer of 2000, Vertical Horizon seemed to be EXACTLY what the US wanted. The heartfelt and longing sounds of the single “Everything You Want” skyrocketed the band to #1, and the song went on to become one of the biggest songs of the year. For a band who had paid their dues and started their career with a very DIY approach, their mainstream success was maybe cut shorter than it could’ve been by the age old story of major label mismanagement. This week, we dive into the story and music of Vertical Horizon to find out if their catalog is everything we want.

    Belvedere Bros S1E1: Stranger in the Night (Pilot)
    Jun 5 2026
    On March 15th, 1985, the world was introduced to Mr. Belvedere, a sitcom on ABC about an accomplished British housekeeper who shows up at the door of a Pittsburgh family. What followed was six seasons of heartwarming hilarity, anchored by Broadway veteran Christopher Hewett’s portrayal of Lynn Aloysius Belvedere. In this episode, Matt and Chris dive into the pilot episode of the show, exploring everything from the show’s unforgettable theme song to its sometimes questionable jokes.

  • “Just a Friend” by Biz Markie (f/ Reese Roper)

    “Just a Friend” by Biz Markie (f/ Reese Roper)
    Jun 3 2026
    Oh SNAP! This week, we’re joined by Five Iron Frenzy vocalist Reese Roper to explore the life and times of Biz Markie, otherwise known as the Clown Prince of Hip Hop. The unforgettable chorus of “Just a Friend,” which was an interpolation of a 1968 Freddie Scott song, became instantly iconic, and Biz’s less-than-perfect performance gave the song endless charm and personality. Whether Biz was inevitably bound for one hit wonderdom is up for debate, but a landmark court case against a sample on his next album may have been what cemented it. Regardless, he had a long and interesting career, all the way up to his untimely passing in 2021. Is there more in Biz Markie’s catalog worth diving into if you only know the hit? This week, we’ll see if he really IS a hundred proof. One Hit Thunder is brought to you by DistroKid, the ultimate partner for taking your music to the next level.
